see over 30,000 pictures worldwide free to view in our galleries |
To mark the centenary of Bristol Greyhound we are featuring ECW bodied Bristol RELH6L 2151 (NHW308F) seen leaving Marlborough Street Bus Station in Bristol for London. This was one of six delivered in 1968 in Greyhound colours alongside more in dual purpose Tilling green and cream for long distance bus services. It shares the dual purpose front doors and T-style destination blind, the twenty RE coaches delivered five years earlier were RELH6G with coach style doors and blinds. The Bristol - London service is believed to be the first regular motorcoach service in the world and flourished in competition with Great Western Railways. This iconic view was taken around 1970 and before the National Bus Company swept away the red and cream livery and Greyhound logo for what became National Express white.
